• D. Nine member organizations

Answer: (D)

The idea being tested is how many member organizations make up the Divine Nine, the group of fraternities and sororities that comprise the National Pan-Hellenic Council. The Divine Nine refers to nine member organizations, and Alpha Phi Alpha is one of them. Therefore, the total number is nine. The other eight are Alpha Kappa Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, Omega Psi Phi, Delta Sigma Theta, Phi Beta Sigma, Zeta Phi Beta, Sigma Gamma Rho, and Iota Phi Theta.
